    Uppers and lowers are machined 6061-T6 aluminum. The lower has a flared magazine well, Teflon coated springs and Teflon coated detent pins. The company includes a tension screw to remove any slop between the upper and lower receivers.

    Hand guards made of machined 6061 are used and have KeyMod type attachment points. The hand guards have a Picatinny type rail in the 12 o’clock position.

    Pricing for these guns start at $1,399. Note: The photo shown above is from the company’s website and may show options that are not part of the base carbine package.
